Our Story

Mary and Kim both come from Acts of Service families. Kim’s mom has never met a project she can’t tackle and neither has Kim. Mary’s mom regularly hosts family parties in her home with a grace and generosity rivaled by Martha Stewart. Kim’s dad, a dedicated member of the Ultra Running community, helped shape her determination and grit by involving her in race events as a kid. Mary's dad recruited her to help when fixing broken air conditioning units for folks in need and tagging along to elderly neighbors’ homes after a snowstorm, shovel in hand. Kim and Mary were raised to believe in showing up for their community—and that every now and then, the best way to do that is with a well-thrown party.

When it was time to get married themselves they were full of creative ideas and excited to bring them to life. But as their big days approached, they realized that the Y in DIY was not enough to get the job done. They called on their moms, sisters, friends, and cousins to handle the last minute details. Putting their families to work on such an important day never really sat right with them, so they created Bull City Blossom Events to fill that void for others. Kim and Mary are down-to-earth problem solvers, who provide their clients with guilt-free support and confident, calm event management. Their expertise and experience allow clients to enjoy a stress-free celebration to the fullest and make the memories they'd always dreamed of.

Kim and Mary met when their spouses worked together over 15 years ago?!!?! They instantly became close, loyal friends. Mary even entrusted Kim to design and make her wedding dress. Their friendship has blossomed over the years, moving their families to North Carolina, raising kids together and supporting each other through it all. People often ask if they are sisters and they confidently answer “Yes!” They now share a passion for the creative and collaborative work of creating fun and flawless events for their clients.
